Chapter 0235 - A True Wealthy Family
"Hey, it's so late, everyone is still hungry for lunch, I'll invite everyone to eat, and then you can choose at the dinner table while you get along!" Lin Jianqi raised his wrist and glanced at the time, and said apologetically. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I know that Mr. Lin is busy, and I invite you to dinner, but if you don't go, you won't give you face, right?" Haha......" Jin Yong smiled happily, he didn't expect Lin Jianqi to pick out the ideal Huang Rong as soon as he made a move, and he also chose two of them, and said that he must listen to Lin Jianqi's opinion more when choosing roles in the future.
"Naturally, I have to give Lin Dong face!" Li Menghua also smiled.
Jin Yong and Li Menghua both looked at Weng Meiling and Weng Jingjing, both of them saw that Lin Jianqi took the initiative to ask for dinner for the two girls, so naturally it depended on their attitudes, but they saw Weng Jingjing and said with some distress: "Then I'll eat more than 20 taels of silver this time!" It immediately made everyone laugh.
The three of Jin Yong boarded the luxury extended version of the Lamborghini sedan without the word No. 7, and couldn't help but be amazed again.
"This car costs a lot of money, right?" Jin Yong said curiously, frowning slightly.
"Money can't buy it, this is a prototype car, designed to sell to real rich people, I'm just a test drive!" Lin Jianqi took out the crystal cup, put it on the red nanmu table in the middle of the car, and took out a bottle of Lafite from the freezer next to him and said.
"I know this, Mr. Lin said that he participated in the design of this car!" Weng Meiling interjected.
"Mr. Lin is really versatile, and he can also design cars?" Jin Yong couldn't see Lin Jianqi's depth clearly, and praised him.
"How does Mr. Lin sell this car?" Li Menghua touched the seat inlaid with gold and jade, and asked curiously.
"A friend of mine just ordered this top-of-the-line device for 10 million, and I just took it for a test drive!" Lin Jianqi poured red wine for Jin Yong and Li Menghua and handed it over one by one.
"10 million Hong Kong dollars?" Li Menghua was startled.
"It's dollars!" Lin Jianqi lowered his head and took out a bottle of evian mineral water from the freezer, poured two crystal cups into them and handed them to Weng Jingjing and Weng Meiling.
Jin Yong and Li Menghua listened to it with a smack, 10 million dollars to buy a car?
"All this is real gold?" Li Menghua said in disbelief as he looked at the resplendor in the car.
"Well, yes, but the cheapest thing about this car is gold!" Lin Jianqi explained.
"Didn't you say three million dollars last time?" Weng Meiling said in surprise, Weng Jingjing looked at Lin Jianqi, and Jin Yong and Li Menghua glanced at each other, and said in their hearts that the two had known each other before.
"Add some decoration and design, and the carpet you're stepping on is all whole sea otter skins, as mentioned earlier, a Koca coat sold by Niemann Marcus for $125,000 in 1970 to Welsh actor Richard Burton. And that one was just a cross of sea otter and sable! gold was the cheapest thing in the car, not even the wagons and special tires. Lin Jianqi and Jin Yong touched the crystal cup with Li Menghua and explained.
"That's not $10 million, right?" Weng Jingjing touched the carpet under her feet and smacked her tongue.
"The world's toughest space armor, harder than diamond, and the window glass is made of synthetic diamond and carbon nitride, and it is difficult for ordinary bullets to scratch the car's surface. This is the mobile phone of the mobile communication company, which can make calls at any time, and is being loaded with amphibious systems, it can be said that this constantly upgrading car will integrate the world's top advanced technology...... "Lin Jianqi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, like a few treasures.
"Ah, bulletproof, can it be used in the military?" Kim Yong said in surprise.
"If it is used for military purposes, even the United States will be bankrupt financially, think about it, a car costs 10 million US dollars, 100 million US dollars is only 10 cars, and it is not invincible, many heavy weapons can hurt it, so it can only be a luxury product, no country will spend money on it for armaments, think about it, how much can 10 million US dollars buy a bazooka worth more than 700 Hong Kong dollars?" Lin Jianqi said with a slight increase in the corners of his mouth.
"Who can afford such a luxurious car?" Li Menghua sighed.
"Many people can afford it, the rich people in this world know far more than you, and the richest man in Hong Kong is just a beggar with a little change in a broken bowl in their eyes! Some wealthy families are even richer than Britain, and they are really accompanied by wealth and the powerful, and if their wealth is calculated in dollars, it is measured in trillions, and if they don't step into their circle, they will never understand what a wealthy family is!" Lin Jianqi looked at the wine glass in his hand and smiled playfully.
"Trillions of dollars?" Jin Yong said, surprised. The three daughters of Li Menghua in the carriage also widened their eyes, and what Lin Jianqi said was like a fantasy.
"Yes, all countries need to borrow money from them. Lin Jianqi pouted.
"Is there really such a wealthy family?" Li Menghua said in disbelief.
"The German poet Heine once said: 'Money is the God of our time, and Rothschild is its prophet.' Western tycoons like Rothschild have controlled the world's economic lifeline for hundreds of years, and the tycoons of the Middle East are like children playing with mud. Lin Jianqi smiled and shook his head.
"How is this possible?" everyone shook their heads in disbelief.
"Rochild's third son, Nathan, for example, was a very deep and decisive banker, and no one really understood his inner world. With his astonishing financial talents and unpredictable methods, by 1815 Nathan was London's premier banking oligarchy.
The Battle of Waterloo, which took place on June 18, 1815, on the outskirts of Brussels, Belgium, was not only a life-and-death duel between the armies of Napoleon and Wellington, but also a huge gamble for thousands of investors, with the winners gaining unprecedented wealth and the losers losing dearly. The air in the London stock exchange was extremely tense, and everyone was anxiously awaiting the final outcome of the Battle of Waterloo. If Britain loses, the price of British government bonds (sonsols) will fall into the abyss, and if Britain wins, British government bonds will soar into the sky.
While the two armies were fighting to the death, Rothschild's spies were nervously collecting as accurate progress as possible from within the two armies. A Rothschild courier named Ross Woods witnessed the battle and saw that Napoleon's defeat was a foregone conclusion, and crossed the English Channel by boat overnight. Nathan himself waited on the shore, took the letter from Ross Woods, quickly opened the envelope, scanned the headlines of the battle report, and rode straight to the London Stock Exchange.
As Nathan walked briskly into the stock exchange, the anxious and agitated crowd waiting for the battle report immediately fell silent, and all eyes were fixed on Nathan's expressionless, unfathomable face. Everyone pinned their wealth and honor on Nathan's eyes. Nathan deliberately gave a deep look to the Rothschild traders around him, and everyone immediately rushed to the trading desk without a sound and began to sell British bonds. Then the price of public bonds began to fall, and then the price of public bonds began to collapse like a tidal wave.
The cunning Nathan was still leaning on his throne expressionlessly. Someone on the trading floor finally exclaimed, 'Rothschild knows!' and 'Wellington is defeated!' and everyone immediately came back to their senses like an electric shock, and the sell-off finally turned into panic. After a few hours of frantic selling, the UK government debt has become a pile of garbage, with 5% of the par value remaining.
At this time, Nathan was still watching all this indifferently, as he had been at the beginning. His eyes flickered slightly in a look that he could never read unless he had been trained for a long time, but this time the signal was completely different. His signalmen immediately began to pounce on their respective trading desks and began to buy every British bond they could see in the market.
At 11 p.m. on June 21, Lord Wellington's messenger, Henry Pogh, finally arrived in London, with the news that Napoleon's army had been completely defeated after eight hours of hard fighting, losing a third of its soldiers, and that France was finished!
This news was a full day later than Nathan's intelligence, and Nathan made 20 times as much money on this day, more than Napoleon and Wellington had gained in decades of war!
The Battle of Waterloo made Nathan the largest creditor of the British political axe, thus leading the future issuance of British public bonds, and the Bank of England was controlled by Nathan.
After that, Nathan made no secret of his pride in conquering the British Empire: 'I don't care what kind of English puppet is put on the throne to rule this vast empire on which the sun never sets. Whoever controls the money supply of the British Empire controls the British Empire, and that person is me!' And this Nathan is only the third son of Rothschild.
“…… , Ace, Rothschild, why have you never heard of it?" Weng Jingjing said with curiosity in her eyes.
"The real rich are very low-key, and their finances are not disclosed to the public, and the political axe of many countries depends on their faces, and if any newspaper is not comfortable finding it, it may change hands the next day. Moreover, before the elder Rothschild died in 1813, he made a strict will:
1. All important positions in the family bank must be held by family insiders, and no outsiders are used. Only male members of the family are allowed to participate in the family's business activities. 2. Family intermarriage can only be carried out between cousins to prevent wealth dilution and outflow. This rule was enforced in the early days and later relaxed to allow intermarriage with other Jewish banking families. 3. It is absolutely forbidden to disclose the property situation to the public. 4. In the inheritance of property, lawyers are absolutely not allowed to intervene. 5. The eldest son of each family is the head of each family, and only with the unanimous consent of the family can the second son be selected to succeed him. Anyone who violates the will will will lose all inheritance rights.
Rothschild is also translated as 'Rothschild', 'Roschild', 'Rothschild', if you search carefully, you will find more!" Lin Jianqi said.
"The car built by Mr. Lin is expensive enough, who is it sold to?" Li Menghua said curiously. The top tycoons who control the lifeblood of the world economy are too far away from her.
"A member of the royal family, who exactly it is a trade secret!" Lin Jianqi nodded immediately.
"I'm going to drink red wine too! Seeing that the three of them drank Lafite red wine, but gave themselves and Weng Meiling white water, Weng Jingjing was dissatisfied.
"Girls drink less alcohol, and this mineral water of evian origin, you look down on it so much, Napoleon III, who has a soft spot for this mineral water, knows that he will jump out of the grave and whip you!" Lin Jianqi joked.
"Hmph, maybe who's pumping whom!" Weng Jingjing snorted with white eyes.
"Mr. Lin must have hidden his wealth, you are so rich, why don't you use this money to do something more meaningful?" Jin Yong said earnestly.
"Brother Cha thinks I've done less, who in the Asian giants has done more than me Lin Jianqi?" Lin Jianqi asked with a smile.
"This ...... I just want Mr. Lin to do as much as he can, our nation ......" Jin Yong was still waiting to speak, but was interrupted by Lin Jianqi waving his hand.
Shen Wansan is not kind enough to help Zhu Yuanzhang repair the city wall, he will not die ugly, and no one will care about you if you are rich and powerful and greedy for pleasure, but if you invite people to buy people's hearts, what are you going to do?
Brother Cha, some things are not good if you are kind, and the hat of the country and the nation is too big, people who are dedicated to doing good deeds may not have good results, and there are many people who do bad things with good intentions. Lin Jianqi cynically retorted.
Lin Jianqi has always liked Zhuge Liang's Seven Views of the Method, "Ask about right and wrong and look at his will, poor people look at his changes with rhetoric, consult him with strategy and look at his knowledge, tell him about disasters and look at his bravery, drunk with wine and look at his nature, when he is in the process of profit, and look at his incorruptibility, and look at his belief by things." He wanted to observe Kim Yong, because the other party would be an important part of his future plan to build an original literary platform.
"Mr. Lin's idea Cha doesn't dare to agree!" Jin Yong frowned slightly, and said righteously.
